i say “global domination”, they say “global domin-ASIAN”

whatever. i’m just glad we’re on the same team. besides, i barely remember my own tags anyway, not that i don’t think everything/one i write about is capable to/should dominate, but changing now would just look like biting (though it would be meant as hommage) and add another tricky internet detail to remember. 

i am not sure how i came upon these lovelies, but i’m glad i did and that i subscribed, because it’s like a tiny kick in the nuts every morning, you know, the kind that makes you spit up your roiboos because you were foolish enough to attempt to drink and read (poor macbook). 

here’s the latest: http://disgrasian.blogspot.com/

ps. why are asian girls so HOT in la? is it because that’s where the gold really was, and everyone else that got lost along the way and “invited” to build the railroads and such along the rest of the west coast just had to give up a little bit? (sigh).

metro stories-poetry in a rubik’s cube

it happened in toronto, on the east/west train. a man surrounded by garbage bags (they coulda been filled with laundry) was sitting across from me, though i guess it was the public transit equivalent of kitty corner, as he was sitting facing the side and i was sitting facing front. anyways, he was one-handedly going to town on this rubik’s cube with such mastery that it was mesmerizing. the stickers were wearing out, and it’s not just the edges that look peeled off (my way of conquering the bastard), no, it was clear (he finished the thing at least four times while we were on the train, and it was his spectacle that prompted me to stay on for the entire line and back) that that was mere wear and tear. i would like to send him this (see above) because it is as beauty-full as his expression (or showing off, because, let’s face it, that often looks very good) but i’m afraid that he would callous up his left hand so bad that he would have to quit. his “outside the box” flaunting of a skill that few know how to channel properly reminds me of twisting language for one’s own means-it’s not how much you know of a language, but how you use it that’s important-for instance, if you can observe and understand the speech patterns, idioms, and cultural references of a language, that marks you as someone who truly gets that language, and no amount of studying grammar, vocabulary, or dialogues can prompt the same effect.

march 28, 2009-mark your calendars

bring your person live to Cafe Campus, or if you can’t do that (natural disaster, you have flesh-eating disease, you’re not in the country) go to the internets, but like a real band, they’re more concerned with the show and direct interaction than the marketing, so just show up, man.

is what it looks like, dope is what it sounds like. if you’ve been to any of the shows in the last two years, you’ll finally be satisfied with a peace of the band that you can put in your pocket, especially if you wear city-approved overalls.
